Sirius SUB-X1 Universal Plug 'n' Play Boombox

Amazon is wonderful in providing anything when I decide to purchase. Fast, easy to find things, reliable. The boom box sounds fantastic.

I purchase the Sirius SUB-X1 Universal Plug n Play Boombox to listen to NASCAR Station Sirius 128. I have been very much please with this product as a radio. With the use of the remote from the SP-5 Receiver. The antenna is another issue, as stated in a earlier review, that there is a huge receiption problem (at least on the east coast)with the antenna that comes with the radio. I to found the best antenna is the radio antenna that came with the SP-5 Receiver. The Model Number on the back of this antenna is SIR-3.3RCTMOB05. Once I started using this anetenna it solved my reception problems.

I recently purchashed a Sub-X1 to replace my Orbiter boombox and Orb reciver. It sounds great. The only technical problem I have with it,
is due to my location.(no real clear view of the sky). But I am disapointed that it didn't come with a remote control. My old Orbiter was ideal because of the remote feature. Being a lazy sort of guy, It was nice not to have to get up to change channels or turn the unit on or off.
So may I offer a sugestion to Sirius. Make a universal remote for your
recivers and boomboxes.

I purchased this boombox and the receiver and it is a great product! Very easy to use, gets excellent reception and the sound is awesome!

There is an outlet to plug in your Ipod and listen to your tunes, which is a great feature. It comes with a little remote which is also very handy.

Now if only you could download tunes from Sirius to the Ipod!

Just bought the boombox a week ago and am very happy with it so far. The sound is very clear and the bass is surprisingly tight. Those of you who are complaining about not having reception, satellites are way up in the sky! SPACE actually! Much like the GPS you own, or satellite TV you watch, it needs a way of linking to them. If you want to listen in an office, go online and listen there. This is not for a dark room with no windows. Expect to have the antenna either outside or up against a window for sure. This has plenty of sound for the price and I assure you, you wont be disappointed.
